no doubt once the hoodlum crowd learns to walk upright and speak english they too will be given the chance to commit white collar crimes. as it is now when you wear your pants that low and talk like a moron you just aren't going to see a corner office unless it's the PD's.

that study is interesting. seems to say that white criminals are nuts and black criminals are violent (and apparently aren't gainfully employed per the workplace violence figures!).

you know kids in many ways are just reflections of what they see. black kids have an awful lot of bad role models out there and are taught from early on that it's all about 'money'. couple that with a piss poor education (lack of parent involvement, bad surroundings) and you end up with Rent-A-Center (aka Debtor's Prison Recruitment Center) customers for life who just make one bad decision after another. and it's not just a black thing to be sure. those of us who live in/near rural areas know full well the little baby in the back of a run down Neon driven by a 300lb white chick who is on her way to pick up a flat panel for the trailer doesn't have much of a chance either.
